Fat bastard that can afford to fuck hot strippers
Adult entertainment star Kagney Linn Karter was found dead in her Ohio apartment Thursday.

According to the New York Post, Karter, who was 36 years old, was found dead after an apparent suicide last week. Per reports obtained by TMZ, Karter died on Thursday in Parma, Ohio. The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office received her body on that same day, per TMZ

An official with the police department told the outlet that Karter had died by suicide.

In an update, TMZ reported that Karter died from an intraoral shotgun wound, citing documents obtained from Cuyahoga County officials.

Per TMZ, the adult film actress began her career in the mid-2000s and moved from L.A. to Ohio in 2019, where she opened a pole fitness studio.

A GoFundMe was launched by two friends, with an initial goal of raising $8,000 for funeral expenses. The campaign as since raised over $15,000, thanks to help from others. According to the GoFundMe, any leftover funds will be donated to a local animal rescue charity.

"Unfortunately, despite all of her many impressive accomplishments and talents, Kagney struggled with mental health issues as the years passed by. Even in her darkest days, however, she still showed up to the studio, always ready to learn, contribute, better herself in whatever small way she could manage," Karter's friends wrote. “As alone as she undoubtedly felt within the confines of her own head, she continued to make an effort to show up for her friends and the community who cared about her.”

She was a smoke show when she first came out back in 2009-2010. She started out as a dancer at Deja Vu. She did the feature dancer circuit after she became a famous in porn.

Another suicide along with August Ames, Dakota Sky, Tera Wray, Jesse Jane, etc. As Billy Joel said: Only the good die young.

Yeah I've seen her, she was hot. A lot of these girls have sexual abuse early on and drugs later on. I don't what her situation was but it's tough to live a normal life in that kind of crazy ass world.

This blows my mind. Sad to see most anyone commit suicide but a really hot woman (at least at one time) was living in Parma Ohio (a rather crappy area near downtown Cleveland) just teaching a pole dancing class?

I can’t even count how many times I’ve rolled through Parma and Kagney Linn Karter was there too!?!?

I had no fucking idea who she was, so I googled her the woman was 36 years old and had credits in over one thousand porn films, first question how was she broke, and damn with that many different films, with only god knows how many sex partners she had, who wouldn't have issues, it's actually to be expected, and sad to note, suicide isn't uncommon amongst porn actresses.

This thread got me curious about porn star suicides. One said the sex is fun but the industry on the whole just dehumanizes and degrades them. Seems like even a lot of male porn stars, gay and straight, commit suicide too.

@twentyfive - I don't know a ton about the industry, but a lot of performers who can't negotiate seem to get fucked (no pun intended).

Mia Khalifa, as one of the few Arab pornstars, rocketed up the charts for a bit, especially fucking and sucking in a hijab. But she made little according to her wiki:

"In January 2017, xHamster reported that Khalifa was the most-searched-for adult actress of 2016.[3] In 2018, three years after leaving the industry, she was still the second-highest-ranked person on Pornhub.[21] In August 2019, Khalifa stated that she made $12,000 working in porn by making an estimated $1,000 per scene – standard contractor compensation from production studios in the industry, according to Alec Helmy, president and publisher of adult entertainment industry news site XBIZ – and that she did not receive residuals from BangBros or from Pornhub and other free sites where BangBros uploaded the videos.[19][22] While PornHub has not stated how much revenue Khalifa's videos had generated for the site, according to a 2019 estimate by Social Blade CEO Jason Urgo based on YouTube-like advertising revenue per view, she could have made over $500,000 had she been a PornHub partner.[22]"

I prefer learning about porn stars like Domonique Simone who quit the biz and are now living a quiet life. She's raising her 4 kids.

@PuddyTat to be fair the name recognition she (Mia K) got from her time in porn more than made up for her lack of negotiation skills. She didn't even get screwed over, she got *standard* rates and presumably terms. I think one of the big sites also refuted her claims of only getting $12,000 total in a blog post some time ago.

^ Could have been. But she could have made a lot more if she knew her value.

But now that she's known to be a Hamas-loving cunt...
